This study is an intervention study using a single-arm A-B design (baseline phase-intervention phase) conducted at a single facility.
Intervention:Use of the AI-based dietary recording application FoodLogAthl.
Study Period:The baseline phase (Phase A) lasts for one month, followed by the intervention phase (Phase B) lasting for two months. During this period, participants record their dietary intake for five consecutive days prior to each monthly nutrition counseling session, resulting in a total of 15 recording days.
Intervention Dose:The intervention consists solely of the use of the application. Participants are instructed to take and upload one photograph per meal for all meals consumed, including snacks.
Frequency:Dietary recording is conducted for five days per month over three consecutive months. Detailed nutritional assessment by a registered dietitian is performed once per month after each face-to-face nutrition counseling session.
